Back in January, Turn 10 unveiled a cascade of technical innovations destined for Forza Motorsport. The roster featured awe-inspiring advancements, from a fully procedural cloud system to car paint meticulously captured with a spectrophotometer—a term that could easily be plucked from a ghost-hunting show.
Amidst these revelations, one question remained unanswered: What kind of hardware would players need to fully immerse themselves in these new-age wonders? Today, that query finds resolution as Turn 10 reveals the comprehensive PC system requirements for Forza Motorsport, along with a host of additional features awaiting players.
Unsurprisingly, the hardware prerequisites for the new iteration of Forza Motorsport scale the heights of demand. The minimum specification caters to the midrange user, albeit with an eyebrow-raising stipulation: a staggering 130GB of SSD space.
Yet, assuming you’re not inclined to traverse the world of Forza at minimum settings—a prospect that likely holds little appeal—you’ll find yourself in the realm of more robust hardware, as the requirements ascend swiftly.
